Looks like a bullet-pointed list of the many ways baka gaijin waste their money on things they don't understand.
But honestly, while I can't help you, you could help others help you by getting a higher resolution picture.
And if you absolutely MUST get some philosophical text inscribed into your back for a prolonged amount of time, I'd recommend the Sanzi Jing.
It's incredibly deep and introspective. You should get that tattoo today.
It's his last will and testament. I guess he wanted to be ready - just in case. You know?
You should get a tattoo on your forehead of a classic kanji character like "ai" which means "love". Here's my artistic representation of a kid with such a tattoo:

I would want Kurenai's tattoo, if everyone else in the world didn't have it.
I found this on the same website:

This would be a good investment because it will look like you're wearing a $80 Ed Hardy shirt all the time and will always be let into the clubs and bars. Just make sure you get a similar design that covers your entire front as well.
@bagandscalpal, dark sage and deadly oats:
I get the feeling each of your comments were sarcastic but i can't tell lol.
Does someone at least know what the big characters down the middle mean?
"WEEABOO"Quote:

Also, because this is kanji written in a calligraphy styled font (the font is fading in the middle), this makes it even harder for people to decipher even if they do speak basic Japanese.
Lastly, the picture, as suggested by bagandscalpel, needs to be bigger for us to see anything.
I do strongly recommend that you e-mail the author of this website with your inquiry, ask on a forum with native Japanese people or seek professional help by hiring a translator.
Our apologies, lelouch, but there's just something about "weeaboos" that we all dislike and tattoos are one of them. This video should explain what we think:

I had no idea what "WEEABOO" meant, so I looked it up. I found two definitions:Quote:

2. "Weeaboo"
Someone who is obsessed with Japan/Japanese Culture/Anime, etc. and attempts to act as if they were Japanese, even though they're far from it. They use Japanese words but usually end up pronouncing them wrong and sounding like total assholes. You can find alot of these faggots clogging up the forums of Gaia Online, hanging out in the international aisle of the supermarket, or crowding the manga section of your local bookstore.
I've come to the conclusion that you are all either making fun of me for wanting this tattoo while refusing to translate, or that you plan on beating me with paddles.
Sad panda.
edit:
@enkoujin: I literally just lol'd out of my bed from that video
I'm sure they're implying a little bit of both of those definitions.
I say you should just get something witty and relevant like this:

might be a little too racist though...
speaking of racism, that guy's teeth in the video enkoujin posted were so white that white supremacists would be jealous...
It's weird. They say you would call an Asian person wearing clothes with horrible English on them a "douchebag" but it's actually a great source of comedy.
Not that that changes anything. In the end the message is clear: Don't get that retarded tattoo.
The "character" (if you can see a definite character there) that makes up the lower portion of the larger middle font of the original tattoo looks like 'tea"..
That's all I could make out.
I did try some cleaning, then extracting the character, then put it to an online OCR I use and nothing came out of it.
I might try for chinese.
I've seen some with ridiculous kanji for sure, one which I remember was 女力, which is a direction word for word translation for "Girl Power". It doesn't even make sense. However, I do have some shirts with kanji, which I guess is ok, since I'm asian......
I don't see what's wrong with such shirts if you know the language decently. But if you don't know the language and they aren't 100% obvious tourist shirts, I find it more dubious. Everybody thinks English (not Engrish) prints on T-shirts are perfectly OK everywhere, so why wouldn't other languages be? I think denying the right to use them is elitist weeabooism as much as wearing them ignorantly is popular weeabooism.
lelouch: is your back muscular and broad enough to handle a badass back tat?
If you have any huge tats on your body, you won't be allowed into hot spring and public baths if and when you ever visit Japan. Plus you might get stabbed by real gangsters there if you do have offensive tats.
So the Japanese guy I know, with tattoos all over his back, arms etc, is actually gangsta?
@animeniax: yes my back is about as broad as his
@buffalobian: I agree. Racist japs.
@Xanbcoo: I literally cannot stop laughing at engrish.com. never heard of this site, this is hilarious.
"Buy one, get half" LOL
